the dimension of P3 is 3. 888-888-8888 Text m

in every given set there are three vectors.
so, if they are linearly independent,. then they can form
abasis to P3.
By providing your phone number, you agree to receive a
(a) this can also be seen to be ( 1,0,0) (
0,0,1),(-2,0,1) automated text message with a link to get the app. Stand
messaging rates may apply.
we can easily see that these vectors are dependent while
2(1,0,0) - 1( 0,0,1) + ( -2,0,1) = ( 0,0,0)
so, they cannot form a basis.
(b) ( 2,0,0) , ( 0,0,1) ,(0,1,0) , ( 3,2,0)
the first three vectors are indepndent and so they can form
abasis by omitting the fourth.
(c) ( 2,1,0) , ( 1,1,0) ,( -1,0,1) My Textbook Solutions
by finding the determinant of the matrix whose rows or
columnsare these vectors, we can see the determinant is
notzero.
so, the vectors are linearly independent.
∴ they form a basis to V.
(d) 2 vectors are linearly indepedent but they cannotspan a
three dimensional vector, so, they cannot form a basis
toP3.
